Thought I may as well post this here. Now before tracing this mic, I listened. It sounds good. It doesn't have that spitty Chinese sound. It had a smooth upper-treble rise, and the low-end extension sounds deep.
Here are the insides. Note the edge-terminated capsule. Can anyone identify this one? I quite like it:
Now to the schematic. Slightly boring plate-out followed by a cathode follower. But, the first triode is slightly more interesting than usual - Ra is 300K.
The transformer is a standard Chinese model. The same you find in most. As per usual, the PSU voltagbes seem a bit high. I've not opened it, but the 6.7V heater hints at the usualy 7806 plus a diode to lift 0.7V.
